📅Come out to Forró in the Park this Sunday at 1pm - 3pm! We are continuing our weekly dances in May (*except Sun. 5/24*, the day of the Forró NYC Festival and Afro-Bahia Festival in DC) in the park at Dupont Circle! ✏️ Bring a snack to share from home or the Farmers Market- it's a great time to connect and practice our new moves!

🇧🇷Look for the Brazilian flag, Meetup sign, and blue picnic blanket by the Dupont Circle Fountain after the Farmer’s Market ends!

👀By popular demand, we might try some other Brazilian dances as the práctica goes on!

Get fresh Forró for spring! 🌷

Forró is Brazil's favorite partner dance because of its ease and fun. On Sat. March 7th (3:30-5pm class, 5-7pm social), (Lunna Gomes and Gabriela Neri Vieira) are leading a Forró class that is suitable for ALL levels: the basics plus a fun combination!

Get even more out of the Forró class:
✨ Meet the fun community of dancers
✨ Try your dance moves at the social after the lesson

If you’ve been saying you want to learn to dance and check out a new hobby, this is your moment. Forró is a terrific experience.

Learn musical timing, movement, connection… a solid dance foundation.

✨ This is a family-friendly zone
✨ Come solo or bring a partner (we rotate)
✨ Good energy, real training, and a room full of people having fun

A portion of the event proceeds go to support Afro-Bahia Fest 2026 and to support local Brazilian music 🎶 🎵
